This weekend is the McLaren festival, the culmination of the process for 2009. Each year, we accept submissions in January and February from around the country for original comedies in both the full-length and one-act categories. A reading committee of outstanding (and dedicated) volunteers makes sure that every scripts is read by at least two people - keep in mind that we usually receive between 120-150 scripts each year. The readers select the one-act winner, and they also select the finalists for the full-length competition.
This year, there are four finalists, and each will have a Reader's Theatre presentation on Saturday afternoon starting at 1 p.m. From the audience vote, a winner will be selected for the competition. In addition, the members of the 2010 Play Selection committee will attend, and one of these plays may be selected to be included in our 2010 membership season.
Therefore, you're invited to join us on Saturday afternoon and see these finalists - support the readers who helped to select them, and support the directors and actors who will be reading. The cost is only $15, and a small dinner will be served between the second and third performance - the shows will be over by 6 p.m. Call 570-4111 for tickets or just come on down to 2000 West Wadley on Saturday!
